We stand opposed to the war of choice that the Trump administration is waging with Iran. While millions of Americans are denied access to healthcare, the US is spending billions to kill civilians, including hundreds of children in Iran, while terrorizing cities and towns at home. No war. No kings. No ICE. Heather Pierce, President, Rutgers Adjunct Faculty Union Rebecca Givan, President, Rutgers AAUP-AFT

Statement from 1199SEIU on the Trump Administration’s illegal war on Iran.

Nurses condemn Trump’s military action against Iran Nurses across the country are outraged that the Trump administration has ignored the Constitution and committed yet another imperialist act of war over the weekend without approval from Congress. The ...

The attack on Iran, like previous unilateral military actions, is paid for by our patients!

Working class people across the United States are already struggling to afford health care, food, and housing. www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/nurses...

Why Can't Top Democrats Just Say "No War With Iran"? The response to what could be the biggest geopolitical disaster of the 21st century is foot-dragging, silence, and sleepy, feigned opposition long after the deed is done.

The stakes could not be higher. The US-Israeli war on Iran is catastrophic—and rapidly expanding across the region. Yet Democratic leaders are failing to muster a clear, anti-war response. Instead it's sleepy, feigned opposition after the deed is done. By me and @ahjohnson.bsky.social

Military Strikes on Iran Unconstitutional and Immoral Statement of the UE Officers UE logo

Military Strikes on Iran Unconstitutional and Immoral

A Statement of the UE Officers

www.ueunion.org/political-ac...

There's hundreds of elementary and middle and high schools on US military bases all over the world which are, to hear it from way too many Americans, also valid military targets

Live updates: Israel confirms attack on Iran with US help as explosions are heard in Tehran Israel launched a daylight attack Saturday on Iran's capital, with a cloud of smoke rising from the city's downtown near the offices of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

BREAKING: Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is dead, Iranian state media reports.

Statement from SEIU on the Trump Administration’s Unconstitutional Attack Against Iran, Reckless Disregard for Working People’s Lives:

Israel has closed all the crossings into Gaza and reimposed total siege.

Footage from Minab, Iran, shows the aftermath of an Israeli-US strike on a girls' elementary school that reportedly killed more than 50 people.

Today’s military strikes on Iran — carried out by the United States and Israel — mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war.

This guy gets it.

A large group hold signs that say "DON'T CROSS OUR PICKET LINE" and "ULP STRIKE." Others wear shirts that say Starbucks Workers United

Baristas at the Disneyland Resort have hit 100 days on ULP strike!

Going on strike this long isn't an easy decision, but it's also a necessary one. It would take Starbucks less than just 1 day's sales to finalize a multi-year contract with better pay, hours, and protections.

JUST. ONE. DAY.

Jesse Jackson Gave Peace a Chance The iconic civil rights leader, who has died at 84, made anti-war and pro-diplomacy politics central to his presidential bids and his lifelong activism.

“Jesse Jackson Gave Peace a Chance!”

One of the Rev. Jesse Jackson’s great legacies is his record, as a man of faith and a presidential candidate, of embracing anti-war movements, advocating for diplomacy over militarism, and working for deep cuts in Pentagon spending in order to fund human needs.

I. AM. SOMEBODY. ✊🏽

Rest in Power, Reverend Jesse Jackson.

Poll Shows Massive Participation in Minnesota Shutdown Against ICE 1 in four Minnesota voters took part in January 23 day of action, or had a loved one who did.

A new poll finds that 1 in 4 Minnesota voters took part in the Jan 23 shutdown against ICE, or have a loved one who did. Of those, 38% DID NOT WORK, either because they made the choice to stay out, or their workplaces closed. By me, @thomasbirm.bsky.social, @bloomekatz.bsky.social

We’re thrilled to be publishing @jeffschuhrke.bsky.social’s SHUT IT DOWN: A General History of General Strikes

Publishers Marketplace Deal Report January 28, 2026 Scholar and author of BLUE-COLLAR EMPIRE and NO NEUTRALS THERE Jeff Schuhrke’s SHUT IT DOWN: A GENERAL HISTORY OF GENERAL STRIKES, an account of general strikes across centuries and continents, arming a new generation of workers with the knowledge they need to leverage their power and transform the world, to Charlotte Heltai at Haymarket.

Seems like an appropriate week to announce that the new book I'm working on is a history of general strikes around the world. Coming soon via @haymarketbooks.org (maybe not soon enough but I'm trying my best!).

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

I don’t let bullies win.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

On UCLA’s campus on May 1, 2024, a peaceful student demonstration in solidarity with Gaza gets assaulted by counterprotesters using fireworks and makeshift weapons.

In 2024, @UAW members went on strike for Gaza — and were met with fireworks, bear mace, and boards with nails. Union workers were hospitalized while police stood aside.

Alex Pretti’s Killer May Be Part of His Union Border Patrol agents belong to the same federal workers union as VA nurses, a situation some of Pretti’s colleagues are determined to change.

As a VA nurse, Alex Pretti was a member of AFGE. This union also reps Border Patrol, and may have repped Pretti's killer. I talked to VA workers who are furious and want Border Patrol out of AFGE. "For a union member to kill another is a fundamental betrayal of what a union is supposed to be.”
